Benefits of Slow Flow
Lowering a pumps flow rate not only significantly decreases the pump's energy requirements, but also reduces water flow resistance in your
pool equipment and plumbing. Even though you may need to operate the Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 longer, it is far more efficient pumping
low water flow compared to high water flow.
A slow flow rate also has the added benefit of improving your pool's filtration efficiency, enhancing the clarity of your swimming pool water.
Plus your automatic chemical dosers and salt chlorinators are also more effective when the pool water is circulated longer.
Ultra Quiet
Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 operates most economically and with the lowest noise level at its low speed setting. Its low speed setting
significantly reduces the pump's vibration, motor noise and water turbulence to an ultra low 55 decibels (dBA).
Off-Peak Operation
Its low noise levels enable it to be operated at times that are not allowable for conventional pool pumps. A Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 allows
you to take advantage of off-peak electrical tariff periods, without upsetting your neighbours.
Pump Start Up
The Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 Variable Speed Pump is designed to operate on speed setting High when the pump is first turned on. This
ensures the pump is properly primed and adequate flow through the pool's filtration and re-circulation system. The high speed start up will
operate for 3 minutes then switch to the pre-selected speed setting.
During the initial start up period the light on the pre-selected speed setting button will start flashing. If the pump had a pre-selected speed
setting less than 1900 RPM the ECO (Low) light will be flashing.
Note: The above instructions are only a guide; each pool has individual water pressure and flow requirements. Hydrostorm ECO-V 150
Variable Speed Pump has to be sized appropriately by a pool professional to ensure efficient operation of your pool.
The following charts provide the water flow characteristics of the Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 Variable Speed Pump at 4, 6, 8 & 10 metre of head
loss with minimum pump operating hours.

Flow (Litres per Minute)
Note: This chart is calculated using turnover of pool size (litres) once per day.
Note: During normal operation ensure your pool has sufficient circulation of water to ensure effective turnover of the pool. If there is
insufficient flow of water from the pool's returns, increase the pump's operating speed till there is sufficient water flow.
Note: The Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 Variable Speed Pump is "8 Star Energy Rated". This rating was achieved in ECO (Low) speed varied to
1300 RPM.
The Hydrostorm ECO-V 150 Variable Speed Pump is equipped with the latest motor that utilises electronic PCB's &
microchips for pump control & protection.
When the pump is turned off, it will be necessary to delay restarting the pump for a minimum of 10 seconds. This will ensure
the pump electronics has totally reset.
However, in some situations electronically controlled Chlorinators may provide a small residual of power to the Hydrostorm
ECO-V 150 Variable Speed Pump preventing the resetting of the pumps electronics. In this case the power to the Chlorinator
and pump must be totally disconnected to enable the electronics to reset.
It is recommended that you contact the supplier or manufacturer of your chlorinator to gain any further assistance or advice
with this issue.
